Birds, Unlike mammals, have hollow bones. This makes their skeletal structures light enough to allow prolonged flight. Bats, on the other hand, have solid, marrow-filled bones. They require the extra force generated by a broader wingspan to lift their bodies and propel themselves through the air.
Simple answer: Bats have heavier bodies by size.
Bats use echolocation to fly around and find their food. With echolocation, the bats make sounds as they fly. These sounds bounce off of things around them so that they can tell how close or far away from things they are. They can even tell what the object is.
Not so much 'suck' as 'drink', no. :]
AnswerVampires are a myth, but according to such myths can indeed "suck" blood. AnswerVampire bats may very rarely feed on human blood. They normally feed on the fresh blood of smaller animals and fowl.A vampire bat approaches its sleeping prey at night and quietly pierces the victim's skin with its sharp teeth. It then laps up the blood with its tongue. The vampire bat's saliva contains chemicals that keep the blood from clotting quickly, and the wound may continue to bleed and possibly become infected.
Vampire bats can be found from Mexico to Argentina and on some islands in the Caribbean. They are not native to Europe, despite the many folk tales of vampires that have originated there.
Answer yes they will so unless you want to be one don't let them drink you blood
bats live to about 3-5 years and if they hit anything they would die, also if the baby bat lets go of it's mother while she flies he/she would die.
Vampire bats are native to Central and South America. There are three species. The common vampire bat prefers mammal blood, but rarely feeds on humans, while the other two prefer the blood of birds.
Vampires are not real. That said, in stories, they can do whatever the author wishes.
no not all bats are blind ... .... .... new answer .... OK no all bats are able to see the reason they use sonar is because that they see the same way humans do... they use cones and rods in their eyes, which can't see at night, so there fore... bats are not blind they are more able to see than we are. They are just nocturnal so that they are only out during the night. And thus bats cant see at night even though they can see perfectly normal.
No they are not blind, but they have little need to use their eyes to know where to fly. Bats can 'hear' their surroundings by sonar and therefore can 'see' at night.
What countries do bats live in?
The 1,100 species of bat are the only mammals aside from humans who inhabit every place on the planet, with the exception of the Arctic, Antarctic, and a few islands in the Pacific.
Contrary to popular belief (blind as a Bat), Bats are NOT blind. They do not have the best vision (like an eagle), but they can definitely can see. To locate their prey, and avoid obstacles at night, they use a sonar like what you would find on a submarine. They release a sound, and depending on how long it takes to get back, they determine what it is, how big it is, and how far away it is.
Vampires live only in myth, legend, literature, and imagination--perhaps modern movies as well.
As much as some deluded or mentally unstable people may want, vampires do not exist. They are, however, fun to contemplate.
What layer of the rainforest do vampire bats live in?
I think alot of bats are located in caves hidden in the jungle.
caves have never changing temperature and atmosphere. Most bats are nocturnal. They fly and forage for their food (bugs) at night. This means that they need safe places to sleep during the day. Caves provide the kind of protected shelter in which bats can thrive. Hanging from the ceiling of a cave, bats are out of reach of most of their enemies. Some of the most successful species of bats live in large cave colonies. Some of these colonies have millions of members, even up to 20 million! Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico once had 7-8 million, but now has about 1 million.
Why would the front four adult teeth in your mouth feel like they aren't tight into your gums?
It could be a case of overcrowding which is something an orthodontist can fix. Or it could be a lack of flossing and gum massage. You should consult a dentist if flossing doesn't help strengthen the gums, it could be something more serious like gum disease. The sooner the better as so many people leave their teeth to decay rather than overcoming their fears of seeing a dentist.
Some bats have solved this problem using their eyes. These bats (the Megachiroptera) have large eyes that are capable of seeing well even in almost total darkness. Bats are not blind! For example, flying fox bats have very good eyesight and they use their eyes along with their excellent sense of smell to help find food in the dark. Bats' eyes are better at seeing in the dark. Most see objects only in black and white, but color vision is known to exist in some old world fruit bats.
Even the tiny eyes of the echolocating micro bats are sensitive to light. Mega bats are highly visual animals that use their eyes to locate fruit-bearing trees during nocturnal flights. Theses bats are capable of seeing more sharply than humans in the dark, but are not more sensitive. Some micro bats have the ability to discriminate between vertical and horizontal stripes. Observations suggest that when foraging for insects, bats use vision to control their flight altitude. In short, bats have eyes because they use it to locate and find food to eat and to live.

However, Guano is primarily used as direct application plant fertilizer. The manufacture guano just by pulverizing it from its natural state, which is sand. It turns out as porous reddish brown material. This material is now ready to be used as 100% source of phosphate fertilizer for large scale farming. Here in our country, Cebu, Philippines; our local government via the Sugar Regulatory Commission "hails" guano duofos fertilizer as the best source of natural phosphate for your plants.

Why is lipstick made out of bat poop?
It's not. No makeup is made from bat poop.
There is a chemical called guanine that is used in some makeup. It is a protein--in fact, it's one of the building blocks of DNA. But they don't get it from bat poop, which is called guano.
